Truck Crash Unleashes 14 Million Bees Near Canadian Border

A truck carrying 70,000 pounds of bee hives rolled over in Washington State, unleashing an estimated 14 million bees and turning a quiet road into a buzzing nightmare. The swarm forced the closure of the road for 24 hours while dozens of beekeepers scrambled to re-hive the runaway insects. Most bees returned peacefully—those who didn’t are expected to go rogue and start new colonies. They say the driver was unhurt, but his pride may have a few stings.
